#562 of 564 Tundra Camper Modifications by farmguy2001 Oct 05, 2001 (9:20 am)
I am trying to find a source for getting a quad cab Tundra 4X4 modified to add a camper-type shell to bed that is tied together with cab so there is internal access between cab and bed. The goal is to get a hybrid vehicle with interior similar to Sequoia SUV but with utility of the pickup bed of the Tundra.

Closest I've ever seen is cab extenders. From the side they look like those racerback things except they're enclosed and have built-in storage space for items you want protected from weather but dont want in the passenger compartment. Any cap will have an optional opening that lines up with the sliding rear window of your truck so you can reach the bed for stuff you need. Now if you mean to say you want your Tundra converted completely into an SUV hybrid with no barriers between the bed and the cab, well, my guess is that would be so impractical as to not be doable. That would involve somehow getting rid of the rear wall of the cab, which is an important part of the structure, and then connecting the bed to the body. I think you may be best off settling for a cap with an opening for the rear slider. Hybrids on the market with the system you described such as the new Avalanche were designed that way from inception.   ed

I had an ARE CH model cap put on my truck. The color is a very close match. They take the paint code off of the truck and paint that color on the cap. Very good fit and quality seems fine. No leaks at all, even in heavy downpours.   See what cap dealers are in your area, as to what brands they carry, and go from there. Good luck, Bob
